A friend with very serious health problems says that can't means don't want to

Right.Hello!
Unfortunately I find it extremely hard to cut off carbs.
For example, I love pizza and the fact that I would still be able to eat the toppings, while on low carb, was something alleviating, however now I crave the pizza base and cannot eat only the toppings.
I really want some chips with my meat, I got bored of eating meat with salad.
I also really want something sweet every day, either a cake-like or chocolate-like sweet.
If I eat only once per day and try to fast for 2-3 days every week, will I still be able to rip the benefits of ketosis/autophagy/hypoinsulinaemia?
thanks!
Not meant as a condemnation I did suggest speaking to GP and a Counsellor and getting help...
I totally agree with addictions etc and people needing support. I have had friends and family under go probs. Support is in valuable.
I think you may have missed my advice to get help in my post.
I am not sure if you are replying to my previous post? If so, I was replying to Cartys post, not your excellent advice.
Maybe I need more coffee : )
Oh, I so have to try those recipes! (coffee and walnut cake is my favourite!)If you want cake, then eat low carb cake
same for pizza
same for truffles, desserts and muffins
They can be just as filling, just as delicious.
The recipes are all out there on the web, and (once you have bought the ingredients) they are usually a lot less phaff and hassle to make that 'the real thing'.
I have a book of about 60 low carb muffin recipes. Sweet, savory and everywhere in between. I use erythritol sweetener because it has no negative effects for my body. So if I wanted a MacDonalds McMuffin, I would go to the book, and follow the look-alike recipe. It isn't a McMuffin, of course, but it IS delicious, and I would get to eat it more quickly than if I got into the car and drove to the nearest MaccyDs.
I have two cakes planned. One is a Blood Orange cake, the other a coffee walnut cake.

each around 5 g carbs per slice.
Both low carb. Both delicious. The difficulty is deciding which one to make first! Although since the coffee cake is for Mr B I should really do that one... They are a heck of a lot easier to make than ordinary cake. Just mix the ingredients and bake. No beating the flour and sugar together, no beating of egg whites. I could have one in the oven 10 mins from now, if I wanted, and then be eating it in under an hour.

Passata, grated cheese pepperoni and anchovies on mineThis is just an idea as I new to carb reducing diet but what about getting a lidl high protein roll, slice through smear either thin layer of passata or fresh cooked toms then put your cheese on grill lightly add ham or bacon or both t

It was just a thought as i was thinking about the pizza guy and thought about the french bread pizza's you can get so thought about it and hence my reply thought it sounds great going to have this tomorrow for tea.I make a Bolognese sauce and top it with loads of cheese, mozzarella and bake in the oven when my other half has pasta with it.
